Rural Health Transformation - For Providers

What ToRCH Care Means for You

The Hub is the organizing structure that brings together public health agencies, EMS1, pharmacies, non-clinical providers, all types of healthcare providers, and community organizations across multiple counties to work as one coordinated system.​

​Hub Anchors:​

  • As the Hub Anchor, the organization serves as the neutral coordinator of this system.​

  • The Hub Anchor is responsible for convening partners across its region and leading its community in creating change in the local healthcare system. ​

  • The Hub Anchor hosts infrastructure, staff, governance, and coordination, and ensures partners can work together effectively. ​

  • This includes convening a local Leadership Board, supporting shared decision-making, and managing the day-to-day operations that keep coordination moving. ​

​Other Providers:​

  • Providers who are not Anchors remain core contributors in setting priorities, shaping workflows, and delivering care. ​

  • Non-Anchor providers help progress decision making, support their community, and drive progress through the Leadership Board. ​

  • Provider engagement within the Hub helps reduce fragmentation experienced by all providers (clinical and non-clinical) by coordinating patient referrals, ensuring follow-up, and making communication clearer and more reliable.


How You Can Get Involved
